Liberals Are Trying Hard to Tarnish Reagan’s Legacy

Ronald Reagan is thought of as one of the best Presidents of all time. That's just a fact. But of course Liberals have this need to rewrite history.

And many consider him the most overrated.......

The only ones who do that are children like you..and weren't alive through Nixion. Ford and Carter
I lived thru him.....he was not great at all...but he knew PR.

I lived thru him as well. You must have lived in an alternate universe.

What are you 80?

I entered the 80s making $3.35 an hour, I left the 80s making 40 grand a year with a condo , 3 cars , two race boats and snorted all the cocaine a guy could ask for.

My big earnings came from 2001- 2008. The George W. Bush years were great to me. I did OK and held ground during Obama. But I watched lot of other people, mainly minorities, suffer under Obama.
 
Liberals Are Trying Hard to Tarnish Reagan's Legacy

There are several far-left agents writing letters to the editor of the local Las Vegas Sun newspaper of the government workers union sympathies. Those writers say that Reagan increased income taxes and in 8 years boosted up the national debt by almost $2 trillion. How the history gets corrupted in the recounting. First, that low-IQ bloviating gasbag Carter (you remember that “nukelar engineer”?) left the country staggering under an inflation rate of 13% and an unemployment rate of 10% (anybody remembers “the misery index” of 23% which is the sum of the two?). The prime interest rate for the best companies was 21%; the regular 30-year mortgage interest rate was 16%. Reagan cut all the income tax rates in three stages (the Democrat majorities in Congress would not let him do it in one swell swoop). After 6 years the tax receipts by the IRS doubled ending with major surpluses. The Dow Industrial Index went from 550 to 4,000. To “save” the failing savings & loan companies Carter had allowed these to engage in commercial building lending (the repeal of Glass-Stiegel Act), thus resulting in massive failure of those S&L companies; to reimburse their depositors Reagan was forced to spend $560 billion, adding that amount temporarily to the deficit. Carter also introduced the so-called Community Reinvestment Act which resulted in the crash of the housing market in 2007-2008 when pushed by the Democrat majorities under threats of huge fines and jail terms by the Frank-Dodd-Pelosi-Reid criminal combine – when some 600,000 homes were “sold” to “underserved minorities” who had no snowball’s chance in hell to ever pay for them. Later under B. Hussein Obama (our Marxist Muslim president from Kenya) both Fannie May and Freddie Mac went bankrupt and were nationalized with about $180 billion in the red – so far. Reagan’s budget proposals to the Congress were met with derision: the Democrat majority leader Tip O’Neill would come out on the steps of his building every year carrying Reagan’s budget books, and saying DOA (“dead on arrival”) would throw them into a conveniently placed garbage bin. By the end of his presidency the budget was in surplus; the inflation was below 4%; and the unemployment rate was 4.5% (normal bottom rate in boom times). That boom carried into the end of the Clinton presidency in 2000, when that impeached disbarred felon was disciplined by House leader Gingrich. Reagan’s increased military expenditures caused the fall of the Soviet Union’s slave empire in 1990-91. Also, Reagan only nullified Carter’s military reductions. And this Stalinist writer calls this a failure?
spam bot.

hello and goodbye.

ignore list.
 
Reagan entered into his presidency showing signs of dementia...........


Just saying.

We have massive problems existing because of Reagan. No one needs to tarnish him. He did that all by himself.
My thoughts exactly.
 
I honestly don't know what you folks in the 80's were thinking.
You got one part right that we had at least one advantage over you: some of us were thinking.

Well then maybe you all should have done some less thinking. Because your thinking broke the economy.
GHW Bush called Reagans crazy ideas "voodoo economics". GHW was right on.

But Reagan mesmerized his audience like an actor is supposed to whenever he is reading his lines.

And all his lines were indeed fed to him by his handlers.

He was just a stupid figurehead himself, same as his pretty wife.

The sucking of your math notwithstanding, Gramps, I don't see how that bears on the question of whether or not he is overrated....
 
Carter was not the right man for the job of president. He micromanaged everything and did not trust his own people to make decisions. However, the outrageous inflation rate under Carter was not his fault. Blame that on LBJ, who insisted on both guns and butter throughout his presidency. The bill came due when Carter was president, and there wasn't a whole lot that he could do about it.

I often tell people that if you insist on hiring a Washington outsider for president (think "Trump"), then carefully consider the last time we did that (Carter).
 
Lol,

11 tax increases
300 dead marines. Didn't do a goddamn thing about it!
Tax cuts and policies causing most of our middle class problems today.
Most of the wealth started moving to the rich under him. Ending 75 years of anti-trust enforcement on corporations that worked.
Throwing Mental Patients Onto The Streets
Iran-Contra plan
Only president in the history of country to grant a full blown amnesty to 3 million people.
10 Reprehensible Crimes Of Ronald Reagan - Listverse

B. Hussein Obama was born in Mombasa in what is now Kenya on August 4, 1961 at 7:24 PM – and not in Honolulu, Hawaii. Four simple questions must be answered here:
1. Back in 1961 people of color were called “Negroes”. So how can that Obama’s “birth certificate” state that he is "African-American" when the term wasn't even used at that time? Also – he could not have been an “African-American” since his mother was white; at best he should have been classified as an African White.
2. The birth certificate that the White House released lists Obama's birth as August 4, 1961 and lists Barack Hussein Obama as his father. That “long form” certificate was fabricated after the “short form” certificate was shown to be a rather sloppy computer-generated fabrication that had to be eliminated from circulation. At the time of Obama's birth, it also shows that his father was 25 years old and that he was born in "Kenya, East Africa" in 1936. This wouldn't seem like anything of concern, except the fact that Kenya did not even exist until 1963, two whole years after Obama's birth, and 27 years after his father's birth. How could Obama's father have been born in a country that did not yet exist? Up and until Kenya was formed in 1963, it was known as the "British East Africa Protectorate".
3. On the Birth Certificate released by the White House, the listed place of birth is "Kapi'olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital ". This cannot be, because the hospitals in question in 1961 were separate entities called respectively "Kaui Keolani Children's Hospital" and "Kapi'olani Maternity Home”. The name did not change to Kapi'olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital until 1978, when these two hospitals merged. How can this particular name of the hospital be on a birth certificate dated 1961 if this name had not yet been applied to it until 1978? Why hasn't this been discussed in the major media? Let me repeat this: Let somebody explain to this former refugee from a communist hell how come our Main Stream Media have been not only silent about this affair but more than that have been condescending and rather inimical to us “the truthers”? Their silence and their cover-up have made them the co-conspirators in this ongoing crime.
(Note: the state employee who invented this full-form “Birth Certificate” was flying on the inter-island flight with a dozen other passengers when the plane was forced to land on the ocean surface. All passengers and the pilot were saved – except that state employee who mysteriously “drowned”.) Loretta Fuddy, the Hawaii official who verified his long form birth certificate was the only casualty in a plane crash not too long after she did her old friends, the Obamas, this favor.)
4. Another clue comes from Obama's book on his father. He states how proud he is of his father fighting in WWII. B. Hussein Obama's "birth certificate" says his father was 25 years old in 1961 when Obama was born. That should have put his father's date of birth approximately in 1936. Now we need to remember that WWII was between 1939 and 1945. Just how many 3 year olds fight in wars? Does that mean that Mr. Obama is a liar, or simply chooses to alter the facts to satisfy his political purposes? No, Sir – he is a liar.
My own question is this: How come a President of the most powerful country in the history of the world could not secure services of better professional forgers? Not only that – but this mess to happen after the short-form “birth certificate” was shown to be a really low-quality forgery that had to be speedily retracted!

Moore, if you and Trump and Sheriff Joe pool your resources, you might be able to prove that Obama was not native born, by 2030 or so, and then you can proceed with impeachment!
 
Are you that young and indoctrinated or are you biased?

Nah.....just informed......
Then you need to supply information. Otherwise you're just a troll.

Your Bold Assertion, bleated without the support of any facts or citations, doesn't rise to the level of "argument".....if you think you are equipped for that debate, proceed.
He ended the Cold War. What don't you understand about that?
That was Pope John Paul II. Gorbachev and Reagan played a part. But if you want to give Reagan credit, you must also give the Democratic Congress credit. They appropriated the funds.
You Reagan revisionists are way worse than birthers.

Cold War ended before 1989?
It ended during Reagan's third term under Bush.
